London - Former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher has posted bail for her son Mark, who is accused of involvement in a coup plot in Equatorial Guinea. Sources confirmed Wednesday that she posted the bond for her son, which was set at the equivalent of about $395,000. The 51-year-old businessman is under house arrest at his house in Cape Town, South Africa. Equatorial Guinea wants to question him, alleging that he conspired to overthrow its president, Teodoro Obiang. Jerusalem - Israel is vowing to resume its campaign to assassinate Hamas leaders after Tuesday's deadly bus bombings, saying it will not be constrained by national borders. "There will be no geographical barrier in pursuing the terrorists and their leadership," a senior government source told the Agence France-Presse news service. "Any place they are, there will be no immunity." The source said the twin bus bombings, which killed 16 people in Beersheba and wounded 80 others, may have been directed by Hamas leaders based in Syria. United Nations - The United Nations should increase its international monitoring force in Sudan because the country's government has not stopped Arab militia attacks on civilians in Darfur. A UN envoy's report to the Security Council stopped short of recommending economic and diplomatic sanctions against Sudan.
